A bigfoot caught staring at a lady with her puppies in Hocking Hills

29 August 2011 dusk, just before sunset Ewing/logan, Hocking County, Ohio 2 witnesses

Account

Near dusk the witness was outside with puppies when she heard whistles and her dog reacted to a rustle in the forest. She looked up and saw a tall, very dark hairy creature holding down a branch, which then released the branch and stepped back into the trees. After her roommate came outside, both heard trees being moved nearby.
